Figure 2. FAK^ΔIEC mice are more sensitive to DSS treatment.

8–12 week-old mice were fed 2.5% DSS for 5 days and allowed to recover for up to 14 days. The mean percent change in body weight (A) and disease activity index (B) are shown for 16 WT and 14 FAK^ΔIEC mice (days 0–5), 9 WT and 11 FAK^ΔIEC mice (days 6–8), and 5 WT mice (days 9–19). Asterisks indicate values that are significantly different from WT mice at the same time point (P<0.05).
